Frequently Asked Questions
For sensitive-skin products, choose a mild water/glycol or water-dispersible grade with good microbiology and pesticide documentation. If your product story highlights apigenin or bisabolol, ask whether the COA supports that marker.

Keep claims cosmetic and appearance-focused: hydration, comfort, radiance, antioxidant care, smoother-looking skin, visible aging support, or even-looking tone depending on the ingredient. Avoid disease, treatment, SPF, wound-healing, or drug-style claims unless the finished product is reviewed under the correct regulatory pathway.
